Things I Love Thursday #6

It’s Thursday, and I’m armed with a list of things I love.
– Smoothies. Specifically, smoothies with lots of spinach in them, because you get all the green goodness without even trying. Of course, I had my spinach-banana-strawberry smoothie with a plate of kale and mukimame, so consuming greens isn’t really a problem for me, most of them time.
– Sleeping kittens. Also: sleepy kittens. Birdy is a cuddler, and unlike Beany, she’s small enough to curl up just about anywhere without being in the way (not that Beany has ever let her size stop her from trying). And when she’s asleep, it means she’s not chewing on a cord / trying to drink from my glass / clawing at the strings of my hoodie / etc.
– Foam rollers. I watched the DVD that came with mine, and you can pretty much roll yourself out from head to toe. I often have an achy part of my body and wish that I just had a way to apply pressure to the knot, and now I do! And the cats like the box it came in.
– Running. This is usually about the time of year that I put my running shoes away, because I get started with the garden and everything, but I’m training for my 10k in a month, and it feels like I’m finally making progress with this whole running business. I subscribed to Runner’s World (the American version), because even reading about running feats I have no intention of attempting still gets me all revved up.
– Spring. And the sun, and warmer weather, and green stuff growing out of the ground. I’ve walked outside with short sleeves. We survived another winter, guys!

  1. Confession time: I LOATHE smoothies. But I think it’s because my very first job (when I was 15) was working at Robek’s Juice in Los Angeles, slinging orange rinds and scooping protein powder at 5:30 AM every morning. That gig’ll turn ANYONE into a smoothie-hater.
